[00:02.59] |
Well is that cloud painted on the sky? |
[00:04.31] |
Or is it simply where the canvas is blank? |
[00:06.52] |
I realize as I stand at the banks |
[00:08.50] |
Of the river at the feet of the city |
[00:10.37] |
Where I can see the bigger picture |
[00:11.66] |
And it triggers something deep within me |
[00:13.23] |
Philly |
[00:14.44] |
That would be the backdrop |
[00:15.56] |
Home to a million little cafes |
[00:16.69] |
With lattes and laptops |
[00:18.10] |
And that's when I noticed it |
[00:20.22] |
People only seem to leave their homes |
[00:21.33] |
To float in daydreams and postpone the loneliness |
[00:23.92] |
But sunshine don't mean sunburn |
[00:25.95] |
And a stone is only a stone if you're gonna leave them unturned |
[00:29.22] |
Some learn just a little quicker than others |
[00:30.76] |
You've gotta live like you never knew the definition of it |
[00:34.52] |
And sunshine don't mean sunburn |
[00:36.45] |
But a stone is only a stone if you're gonna leave them unturned |
[00:39.63] |
Some learn just a little quicker than others |
[00:42.10] |
You've gotta love like you never knew the definition of it |
[00:45.08] |
I met a girl at the Jersey Shore |
[00:47.36] |
That wore clip on earrings and stumbled in high heels |
[00:50.04] |
And no I wasn't sober when she tapped me on the shoulder |
[00:52.73] |
But I told her that I thought her smile wasn't quite real |
[00:55.41] |
And it must have been the drinks |
[00:57.01] |
Cause I ain't that smooth |
[00:58.22] |
Well it could have been the ink |
[00:59.79] |
She had a few tattoos |
[01:01.04] |
But dude it's hard to find a woman at a cover band bar |
[01:03.48] |
That prefers a conversation to another man's car |
[01:06.25] |
On the real |
[01:07.14] |
And maybe all she wanted was a cigarette |
[01:09.18] |
Or may she was just a shadow in my drunk dream |
[01:11.90] |
She gave a name and a number that wasn't hers |
[01:14.14] |
Said we all got a shadow moonlighting as a sunbeam |
[01:16.95] |
And sunshine don't mean sunburn |
[01:18.95] |
But a stone is only a stone if you're gonna leave them unturned |
[01:22.24] |
Some learn just a little quicker than others |
[01:24.67] |
You've gotta live like you never knew the definition of it |
[01:27.67] |
And sunshine don't mean sunburn |
[01:29.70] |
But a stone is only a stone if you're gonna leave them unturned |
[01:32.93] |
Some learn just a little quicker than others |
[01:35.30] |
You've gotta live like you never knew the definition of it |
[01:38.49] |
They tell me sleep is the cousin of death |
[01:40.51] |
So I would guess that a dream is the daughter of sleep |
[01:43.32] |
Sometimes I wonder whether Witness even exists |
[01:45.87] |
Or if it's just a dream that was caught in the beat |
[01:48.59] |
They're like kid, you got it going on |
[01:50.22] |
Tell me that my flow is strong |
[01:51.53] |
Now I'm in the basement til the break of dawn |
[01:53.52] |
Making songs |
[01:54.15] |
Seeking validation from the Hip Hop heads |
[01:56.58] |
Like the praise and adulation is the only thing I got left |
[01:59.59] |
But on the surface the water appears still |
[02:01.95] |
Unaffected by the children skipping stones on it's skin |
[02:04.57] |
Sometimes I bet it wishes it could just disappear |
[02:07.15] |
Like a feather in the city being blown by the wind |
[02:10.12] |
But sunshine don't mean sunburn |
[02:12.11] |
And a stone is only a stone if you're gonna leave them unturned |
[02:15.35] |
Some learn just a little quicker than others |
[02:17.73] |
You've gotta live like you never knew the definition of it |
[02:20.61] |
And sunshine don't mean sunburn |
[02:22.72] |
But a stone is only a stone if you're gonna leave them unturned |
[02:25.91] |
Some learn just a little quicker than others |
[02:28.39] |
You've gotta love like you never knew the definition of it |
[02:31.49] |
We all wanna disappear sometimes |
[02:34.23] |
We all wanna disappear sometimes |
[02:36.82] |
We all wanna disappear sometimes |
[02:39.04] |
But we wake up every morning just in case that sun shines |
[02:42.02] |
We all wanna disappear sometimes |
[02:44.71] |
We all wanna disappear sometimes |
[02:47.49] |
We all wanna disappear sometimes |
[02:49.62] |
But we wake up every morning just in case that sun shines |
